This afternoon, conservatives’ favorite politician, U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham, took to Twitter solicit questions. It’s still not clear who told him that would be a good idea:
This may not end well RT @GrahamBlog will be on Twitter for the next 15 minutes. Have a question for me?

Here are some of the things we learned during the Q & A:

@GrahamBlog Stones or Beatles?

He did answer a question about Benghazi:
@GrahamBlog Are you making any progress on finding out what happened at #Benghazi?Are you going to let the admin get away with

And he addressed a comment about Rand Paul:
@GrahamBlog Just to say "Good Job". Please don't be too hard on Rand Paul. You all need to stick together (kind of)
— Lynn A (@lantink) March 15, 2013
.@lantink Like Rand he's a sincere guy. Worked together on Medicare and SS. Difference views on national security/foreign policy. – lg
— Lindsey Graham (@GrahamBlog) March 15, 2013
But many Paul supporters weren’t exactly satisfied by that response.

.@grahamblog What is so "out there" about defending constitutional rights that led you to mock Sen Paul, rather than add your voice to his?

@GrahamBlog Why did you attack Rand Paul. Too much infighting.
— Sharon Kay (@SharonEmily) March 15, 2013
@GrahamBlog Your stand against Rand Paul, what did you think you would gain from it?

Why dine w/ Obama while attacking Rand, Rubio, and Lee? RT @GrahamBlog will be on Twitter for the next 15 minutes. Have a question for me?

Bruce Carroll, Graham’s possible challenger in 2014, had a few other queries:

And these questions remained unanswered:
@GrahamBlog Are you afraid of being primaried because you need to be.

When will you retire? RT @GrahamBlog will be on Twitter for the next 15 minutes. Have a question for me?

Question: Why do you cave in on anything conservative? @GrahamBlog will be on Twitter for the next 15 minutes. Have a question for me?
— mpfs (@mpfs79) March 15, 2013
@GrahamBlog What's the point of having an R after your name when you are anything BUT conservative.
— mpfs (@mpfs79) March 15, 2013
Good question. Maybe Sen. Graham will get around to answering it next time.
Gotta run…will be back another time. Enjoyed it. — lg
